Synopsis

A genetically engineered child with no memory of her past. A killer with dreams of destruction. And the fate of a city hanging in the balance.

Amanda and Evan represent the future of human potential. They've been genetically engineered to physical and mental perfection. But perfection comes at a price, and when Amanda's grows too high, she escapes the research facility she calls home, her mind a blank slate to prevent her from ever going back.

But no one can outrun their past forever...

With the truth of her existence nipping at her brain, Amanda finds herself longing for something more. Her innocent world is shattered by life's harsh realities, by a serial killer hellbent on fulfilling a prophecy of death and devastation, by those from whom she fled years ago, and by the companion she left behind, a companion whose evolution followed a far different course than her own.

Join Amanda as she is thrust into a battle for not only her own destiny, but that of an entire city on the precipice of catastrophe. Shortcake is a gripping techno-thriller about inner discovery, outward resilience, and moral choice, whose explosive climax will leave you breathless!
